caption_attribution_description: English: The Queens Arms, Cowden Pound, Kent. This pub is only open between 5 and 10.30, so your photographer was unable to get a lunchtime pint, but several reasons suggest that an evening visit would be in order: (1) It is in Kent, (2) the beer on offer is Adnam's of Suffolk, (3) notices outside state NO LAGER IS SOLD HERE, and NO CHILDREN'S ROOM. I understand that this pub was on an old drovers route when Welsh cattle were driven into Kent for fattening before going to market in London. The drovers probably planted the fir tree as a signpost. I am indebted to John Trimmer for this information.
context_page_description: The Queen's Arms is a Grade II listed public house at Hartfield Road, Cowden Pound, Kent TN8 5NP.
  It is on the Campaign for Real Ale's National Inventory of Historic Pub Interiors.
  It was built in the mid 19th century.
  This unspoilt two bar pub was saved from closure in 2014 when the long standing landlady gave up her tenure. Elsie Maynard took over the licence from her mother Annie in 1973. The pub had been in the hands of the same family since 1913 and is still known locally as Annie's.
  Originally an E. & H. Kelsey Brewery of Tunbridge Wells house it passed to J.W. Green of Luton and later to Whitbread and Admiral Taverns. It is now in private hands.
  It was famed for many years for having a hand painted sign "Lager not sold here" sign to the left of the front door.
